AYA Festival with Delirious - WOW!

Delirious - first time ever in Malaysia. We've been waiting for years. They've finally come, and they claim they're coming back (read about it here). We wouldn't mind. Their performance at the Putra Indoor Stadium on Feb 2, 2o06 was mindblowing. To hear the band sing classics like History Maker, Deeper, I Could Sing of Your Love Forever, and more recent classics like Rain Down, My Glorious, and Majesty was just... well... beyond comprehension. Check out some post event stuff at www.ayafestival.com. We heard that planning for AYA Festival 2007 (possibly with MercyMe - tbc) is already underway. We can't wait! Meanwhile, here's some pics from AYA Festival 2006:

Snapshots from Miri

Miri Rocked!

Oh yes, it did. 3 nights that left us wanting more. It's things like these that moves us on, and encourages us not to give up. The Free2Be Youth Rally in Miri, Sarawak was life changing. We saw 291 first time salvation decisions over the 3 nights (it was a Christian event). Over 1700 people packed up the hall the first two nights, and then 2000 over people flooded the final night. Some had to be outside of the hall! To see so many young people touched and transformed in their hearts by their Maker was the highlight of the trip. Nothing beats hearing someone come up to us and say, "What you shared really impacted me. I'll never look down on myself again." Simply amazing. God is more than amazing. Again and again He proves Himself faithful. We had to face some challenges (weary bodies, Andy and his chest pains, little sleep, sound system, etc.), but in spite of all that, God moved. And we'll keep on moving too...

Watch out this space for pictures from our incredible trip to Miri... we just need some time to sort them all out!

Next gig... this Friday (August 26) at Subang Assembly of God, SS13. See you all there?

AF on the WWW

Whassup, friends!

Battle of the Bands was one cool experience! Besides the responsive crowd, and the fact that we were performing on the musiccanteen truck for the very first time, we brought home with us many M&M's goodies! Haha! Our favourite would be the M&M's dispenser! You gotta see for yourself to know how cute it actually is! Thanks, M&M's! We don't yet have pictures from the gig, but when we do, we'll try to post them up here.

Altered Frequency was interviewed by Lilian Loo of genesis-people.com, and they've put the interview up on their site. Do check it out at http://www.genesis-people.com/lifestyle.htm
